Design and Experiment of Sweet Potato Combine Harvester Based on Two-segment Potato Soil Separation Device

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Aiming at the problems of high skin-breaking rate and high impurity rate of sweet potato during harvesting operations, a low-damage fresh-eating sweet potato combine harvester based on a two-segment potato-soil separation device was designed by using a “d”-type elevator chain combined with a double-buffer clearing platform technology. The results show that the best working parameters of the harvester are a vibrating shaft frequency of 5.2 Hz, elevator chain speed of 0.37 m/s, and cleaning platform speed of 0.58 m/s, in which the sweet potato skin-breaking rate is 1.09% and the impurity rate is 1.90%, which is in line with standard.
